Aaaand Loki loses a tooth and Pumpkin doesn't. Get to go pick them up in 45 minutes or so.
15 lbs of cat on painkillers and antibiotics. This is going to be awesome. Not.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

Go, Calli!
I don't understand soccer. I can read a little Spanish, but can only follow simple Spanish spoken slowly. I can only get the Spanish language version of the USA-Belgium game. And yet I have it on.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Yep. It's for a job in Minneapolis. Since I'm on my 9th 90+F day in the past 10, it sounds like heaven.
Fingers crossed, Calli! Though I will note that it routinely gets up to 90+F with 90% humidity in July & August in the MSP. It doesn't last all that long, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Fingers crossed, Calli.

Thanks, y'all. I can live with a 90F day. I just don't want to live with a series of them.

My cats are stoned. Loki more than Pumpkin.

I'm glad there wasn't anything more complex than a lost tooth to deal with sarameg.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Nova is fairly easy to get into the carrier(she likes being held, so I can scoop her up), but meows all the way to the vet, and all the way back. Luna leads us a merry chase around the house, but is quiet once in the carrier.

I want to take tomorrow off, just because. And read, and futz around in my study, and maybe take some stuff to the thrift store (and a bunch of other household stuff that I should do but don't wanna). But I had a week off a month ago. I chatted with the department head at lunch about Hubby, so he won't begrudge me a day, and it's slowing down nicely before the 4th. But the Puritans in my head are frowning at me.
I think I'm talking myself into it. I want to move slowly through a day without expectations. I was so hoping my vacation would fall after Hubby was in the hospital, so I could have a long spell to just breathe.

I am a fibbing fibber who fibs. Apparently the first hurricane of the season is visiting Florida and hte Carolinas, so there's expectation of a work surge. So I got leaned on a little to find out why I needed tomorrow off. So I blithely spun a tale of having to check with doctors offices before the holiday to make sure things were lined up. I told them I had to do things for Hubby while he was in the hospital. Me getting a break is a thing Hubby would want me to do.
